Stirring‐Induced Modulation of NIR Emission in Tm3+‐Doped Nanoparticles: Evidence of Apparent Risetime Sensitivity

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Motion was found to induce significant variation in the luminescence intensity ratio of NIR‐emitting Tm3+‐doped NaYbF4 nanoparticles, which has been ascribed to the population dynamics of the Tm3+ ion's excited states. These findings provide the groundwork for the design of motion nanosensors that can operate in environments not accessible with UV–vis ...

Tailoring Amine Substitution in Fluorene and Dibenzothiophene: A Molecular Strategy for Ultralong Organic Phosphorescence

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Tailored amine substitution in fluorene and dibenzothiophene derivatives enables systematic control of excited‐state properties and triplet population. Combined photophysical studies, TD‐DFT calculations and time‐resolved EPR reveal how charge‐transfer character, sulfur‐induced spin–orbit coupling and triplet manifold engineering cooperate to promote ...

Laser-diode pumped 40-W Yb:YAGceramic laser

Optics Express, 2009
We demonstrated a high-power continuous-wave (CW) polycrystalline Yb:YAG ceramic laser pumped by fiber-pigtailed laser diode at 968 nm with 400 mum fiber core. The Yb:YAG ceramic laser performance was compared for different Yb(3+) ion concentrations in the ceramics by using a conventional end-pump laser cavity consisting of two flat mirrors with output
